Abstract

A filler metal alloy used as a filler for welding cast nickel aluminide alloys contains from about 15 to about 17 wt. % chromium, from about 4 to about 5 wt. % aluminum, equal to or less than about 1.5 wt. % molybdenum, from about 1 to about 4.5 wt. % zirconium, equal to or less than about 0.01 wt. % yttrium, equal to or less than about 0.01 wt. % boron and the balance nickel. The filler metal alloy is made by melting and casting techniques such as are melting the components of the filler metal alloy and cast in copper chill molds. 3 figs.

Tungsten--nickel--iron--molybdenum alloys. [1 to 12 percent Ni, 0. 5 to 8 percent Fe, 0. 5 to 25 percent Mo, balance W, other additions]

Patent Grierson, R; Larsen, E

This invention is directed to the use of tungsten base alloys containing about 1 to 12 wt. percent nickel, about 0.5 to 8 wt. percent iron, and about 0.5 to about 25 percent molybdenum and at least one additional additive selected from cobalt, chromium, manganese, vanadium, tantalum, zirconium, titanium, yttrium, rhenium, boron, and silicon. Chromium may substitute for molybdenum up to 15 percent. In addition to being useful for high-density applications, structural applications, and high-temperature applications, the alloys may be used for die casting dies, molds, cores, and other metal-shaping members. 6 figures, 1 table.
Analysis of weld solidification cracking in cast nickel aluminide alloys

Technical Report Santella, M; Feng, Z

A study of the response of several nickel aluminide alloys to SigmaJig testing was done to examine their weld solidification cracking behavior and the effect of Zr concentration. The alloys were based on the Ni-8Al-7.7Cr-1.5Mo-0.003B wt% composition and contained Zr concentrations of 3, 4.5, and 6 wt%. Vacuum induction melted ingots with a diameter of 2.7 in and weight about 18 lb were made of each alloy, and were used to make 2 x 2 x 0.030 in specimens for the Sigmajig test. The gas tungsten arc welds were made at travel speeds of 10, 20, and 30 ipm withmore »« less

Method of improving fatigue life of cast nickel based superalloys and composition

Patent Denzine, Allen; Kolakowski, Thomas; Wallace, John

The invention consists of a method of producing a fine equiaxed grain structure (ASTM 2-4) in cast nickel-base superalloys which increases low cycle fatigue lives without detrimental effects on stress rupture properties to temperatures as high as 1800.degree. F. These superalloys are variations of the basic nickel-chromium matrix, hardened by gamma prime [Ni.sub.3 (Al, Ti)] but with optional additions of cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, columbium, tantalum, boron, zirconium, carbon and hafnium. The invention grain refines these alloys to ASTM 2 to 4 increasing low cycle fatigue life by a factor of 2 to 5 (i.e. life of 700 hours wouldmore »« less

Nickel aluminide alloys with improved weldability

Patent Santella, M; Goodwin, G

Weldable nickel aluminide alloys which are essentially free, if not entirely free, of weld hot cracking are provided by employing zirconium concentrations in these alloys of greater than 2.6 wt. % or sufficient to provide a substantial presence of Ni--Zr eutectic phase in the weld so as to prevent weld hot cracking. Weld filler metals formed from these so modified nickel aluminide alloys provide for crack-free welds in previously known nickel aluminide alloys. 5 figs.
